“Walled In!” Germany’s inner border
Pretty cool animation. Nice example how to make history more interesting and how computer animation can be used for educational purposes. Find more details about the project on DW World:
For 28 years, a nearly insurmountable barrier kept people from fleeing East Germany. But then, the dramatic night of November 9, 1989, saw the fall of [...]
EU/EP videos for Dummies
… not in a bad sense. More like in this book series (and there is even a EU dummy book!)… A couple of days ago the Austrian version of this video was all over twitter. Now, the producers fulfilled their promise and released an English version with a nice Austrian accent. (hat-tip: europeum). Great visuals [...]

How to explain a political process with a video?
The brilliant people at Common Craft just released a great video that explains the US elections in ‘plain English’! If you don’t know their other videos (mostly about internet issues) you really missed something and I strongly recommend them to you. Basically they “make complex ideas easy to understand using short and simple videos.”(mission statement!) [...]
